 * //Background://** I am currently a graduate student in the Masters program with a concentration in Educational Technology at San Diego State University. Before coming to San Diego, I was in Atlanta, Georgia where I hold a Clear Certification in Teaching ESOL. I and my husband lived in Germany for six years. I also worked as an English Teacher in Turkey.

 * //Teaching Experience://**

While I was in Atlanta, I taught Turkish to Americans in the Turkish American Association of Georgia and at the same time I completed my Clear Certification in Teaching ESOL. I had a chance to work with a perfect group of ESOL teachers in Dunwoody Springs Charter Elementary School, which was a wonderful experience for me. I also designed an ESP (English for Specific Purposes) course and taught English to immigrants in Lutheran Services of Georgia. I taught ESL also in Germany and Turkey. I taught classes both in middle and high schools in Turkey for many years.
